Comic book events. You can over the big ones, and talk about how it changed things and if they still affect things today. Like if The Secret Wars had not of happened, there wouldn't be a Venom.
Just an idea.
I will second Senor Fetch! I'll even contribute an mp3 for this one! I know you're all gnashing at the teeth to hear my opinion

Read it. Thought it was okay at best. For the first part of a mini, it felt awfully rushed. And while the art is fantastic, there were several points where the panel-to-panel storytelling was a bit awkward. Even worse, every so often it was as if the artist was more concerned with making Rosario's character (sorry, can't recall the name) look pretty rather than having her react to the scene.
That said, major props to Ms. Dawson. Whenever a Hollywood star comes out and supports comic books (and wears their geekiness on their sleeve), they deserve a pat on the back.
I was pretty pissed when I heard about this project. It is pretty close to something I've had in development for like 4 years! It is still different enough to go through with it but it made me a little bitter getting close to an earlier experience I had when Fables came out. I had an idea virtually the same as Fables just a few months before Fables got published.

Last month, in Civil War #2, Spidey shocked the world when he outed himself as Peter Parker.
Now, it's time for Spider-Man to really come out. Catch the year's most important story in next month's "Civil War: Tanlines" oneshot.

If I was to describe Superman Returns in one word: lacklustre. Or how about: predictable?
I liked it. Kevin Spacey was brilliant and really chewed up the screen time that he had but Routh was wooden (let's face it, not chosen for his acting chops) and Bosworth was just plain annoying.
Kal Penn, a great comedic actor, had no lines. He was simply there to show that no matter how evil Luthor is he isn't racist in his henchmen hiring practices. By the way, he was the only non-white person in the entire movie as far as I could tell. Is Metropolis that whitebread? Say what you like about Superman III but at least it starred Richard Pryor.
I know that this was a set-up but i wanted more danger. I want Luthor to come back and build a 60-storey robot or, better yet, use the blood on the kryptonite shard to clone a monster like Doomsday for the second movie.
I really just wish they'd use Kevin Smith's script instead of the one they did. It was a Superman movie but fell into mediocrity somewhere between the greatness of Superman II and III. 4/10

Killing Joke all the way.
Dark Knight Returns and Death in the Family are close seconds for me.

I would, and have, bought it. From an antique store no less.
I was on vacation and with family who decided to go antiquing (joy). This particular store had a comic for sale, for $10. They probably thought they were milking me for a sucker.
This was the book:
Featires the first Silver Age Joker appearance baby!!!
Oh, and hello. This is my first post. I told Mike I'd register and i did.

In your case, you should have laughed in their faces. An antiques store that sells comics should know exactly what it's worth.
Detective Comics #268 F- $150
Nice return on that 10 bucks.
It's actually Batman #110 which last had a listing price in the mid 200s if I'm not mistaken.

I see this as more of an issue of age. Video game fans are getting older and therefore are becoming parents.
When I was a kid I had Sega Entertainment System and my Dad was hooked on Choplifter. The same three levels in a row forever. I don't get it?

Did not see this coming:
You are Iron Man.
Inventor. Genius. Businessman.
